NRG Energy, Inc. (NRG)

Following msIRA (accuracy >89%, average pick score 36) and Valuemoney. NRG Energy was punished based on a poor third quarter earnings report. This energy generation company is consistently profitable and seems to be well managed. Selling for less than book value and about 5 times earnings. Although this company has significant debt, the debt load is sustainable. Patient investors will be rewarded.

Seems underpriced right now. Low P/E, diverse energy offerings and substantial money flow.

A good time to buy and hold NRG.

It's been a brutal week in the market (10-30-09) but NRG finally got down low enough to trigger my automatic Limit buy at $24. This stock has scored the highest possible on my 2Core Meter for the past month but I judged the price a little higher than I was comfortable with even though the PE was low. So I got what I asked for except in this situation, i.e. a "good until canceled" Limit order, it usually buys the target stock at your price and then sinks further. This means you have an immediate loss with which to reckon. I caught the "falling knife" but realized before hand what I was doing. I'm hoping when the market turns around that this very solid stock will breeze past my entry point on its way to heaven. Wish me luck. Most people who see heaven are dead!

their efforts towards promoting global energy efficiency aren't being unnoticed, especially by me. strong financial valuations plus their aggressive stance towards popping out strong from the recession make this a buy in my book.

3/14 in Independent Power Producers & Energy Traders -(78.8@A+/A+)

Both Buffet and Soros buying... following the herd here, and not trying to pick it at the bottom. This will eventually outperform.

I believe NRG is currently undervaluded, so the market overtime should remedy this. Also, I think NRG is well positioned to benefit from rising demands for energy.
